[vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/qGqiHJTsRkQ” align=”center”][vc_column_text]Rian Johnson’s Knives Out just released its first trailer.
As you can see, this is a star-studded movie, with the cast including Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Toni Collette, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon, Katherine Langford, Lakeith Stanfield, Jaeden Martell, and Christopher Plummer.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Acclaimed writer and director Rian Johnson (Brick, Looper, The Last Jedi) pays tribute to mystery mastermind Agatha Christie in KNIVES OUT, a fun, modern-day murder mystery where everyone is a suspect. When renowned crime novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) is found dead at his estate just after his 85th birthday, the inquisitive and debonair Detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is mysteriously enlisted to investigate. From Harlan’s dysfunctional family to his devoted staff, Blanc sifts through a web of red herrings and self-serving lies to uncover the truth behind Harlan’s untimely death. With an all-star ensemble cast including Chris Evans, Ana De Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon, Toni Collette, LaKeith Stanfield, Katherine Langford and Jaeden Martell, KNIVES OUT is a witty and stylish whodunit guaranteed to keep audiences guessing until the very end.
From the trailer and official description, this is sounding like a modern-day version of the movie/game Clue. Sometimes, this retelling concept can work. The film Rat Race was the same concept of the older movie It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. So, perhaps Knives Out can grab the concept of Clue, while standing on its own. We will have to wait to find out.
Knives Out hits theaters on November 17, 2019.
